Skin Like Salt and Sun (versie 2)

Verse

I found you dancing by the lifeguard stand

Salt water dripping off your collarbone

Your skin like salt and sun in my hand

We danced on borrowed time before the tide comes home

Red sand slipping through our toes like honey

Your laugh cuts through the static, never late

Shells and driftwood scattered on the dune

Nothing here but the heat of the break of day

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel that current pulling us in?

Don't let go of my hand till we lose ourselves again

Chorus

Ride with me through the undertow

Bare feet, warm sand, let it take control

Salt and sun on your skin so bright

We'll chase this tide 'til the stars come out tonight

Ride with me through the undertow

Verse

Your hair like seaweed in the breeze

The smell of coconut still on our lips

We build a castle in the sand, then let it go

Nothing left but the rhythm and your eyes

Siloam glass full of ice water cool

We sip it slow while the gulls ride the current too

Every hour melting into the next one fast

I don't know how long we'll stay here on this shore at last

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel that current pulling us in?

Don't let go of my hand till we lose ourselves again

Chorus

Ride with me through the undertow

Bare feet, warm sand, let it take control

Salt and sun on your skin so bright

We'll chase this tide 'til the stars come out tonight

Ride with me through the undertow

Bridge

No clock to keep us to no line to cross

Just the sound of the water pulling us close

This is where time gets lost in the foam

Right here on your skin where we're not going home

Chorus

Ride with me through the undertow

Bare feet, warm sand, let it take control

Salt and sun on your skin so bright

We'll chase this tide 'til the stars come out tonight

Ride with me through the undertow
